"I couldn't be happier with our new computer system that Resaleworld.com installed this week. It sure is nice to have computers that react when you tell them to do something. Dean was awesome. He really knows his stuff. Renee also did a great job tracking everything. It was well worth every penny to buy my new system from you and have it installed by your company. We avoided so many quagmires we fell into the last time we bought a new system. To have everything (all seven computers, printers, etc) up and running within a day is amazing.

Thank you so much for our new system."

Hope Chest for Breast Cancer Foundation

"We opened the first Hope Chest for Breast Cancer Retail store in November of 2002 on the West side of the Twin Cities in Orono, on Lake Minnetonka. This store is designed as the proof of concept for the model. In June of this year we opened the second store in St. Paul after several years of 'waiting' for the right location. This store is designed to prove the "replicability" of the model. With these two stores up and running, we are in the process of franchising the model nationwide and have completed filing of the UFOC (Uniform Franchise Offering Circular) in Minnesota and in Maryland. Barbara's goal is to have 50 stores up and running over the next 5 years and be contributing $10 million dollars to Breast Cancer causes(specificaaly underserved women, early detection programs and hospice care for those who have lost the battle)

Liberty Inventory and Liberty POS have been our software choices since our inception, now giving way to Liberty 4 Consignment. While we are neither a thrift store (in the traditional sense) or a consignment store, the software has readily adapted to our needs. When it didn't, the Resale World staff has been there to help us modify the output to meet our objective. Everything in our stores is donated, either by upscale retail clothing and furniture stores, or by individuals who like to see their gently used articles go to this cause. We don't 'haggle' over prices and we don't have a system of periodically reducing prices like a traditional thrift store. We also provide our donors with an itemized year end inventory (by January 20th of the following year), just in time for taxes. The Liberty system has allowed us to operate this way which we feel has helped us maintain our market edge.

As we roll out the franchise operation, there are a lot of unknowns. It's nice to know that our inventory and POS system are not part of them. We will require our franchises to use the Liberty system because we know how well it fits our operation. Pictures of our two stores and some of the items we offer, as well as more about the Foundation and it's operations can be found on our website: www.hopechest.us. Thanks for your interest."

"I opened my shop in 1992 and didn't even know consignment software existed. Started with Liberty for DOS and am now up to LC4.

I have always received great tech support-although we rarely need it-and everyone at Liberty has been good to us.

My favorite things about the program are the easy ways I can get reports, pay out consignors in batches & run mailing labels for just those who have made purchases in a certain time period. Wouldn't dream of ever switching to another program. You guys rock!"

"I have had my consignment store for 18 years. In the beginning I was manual, and when I took the big leap to computerize, I made a terribly poor first choice in software. I don't want to trash anybody, but I would like to share an email from the owner of the company of the first consignment software I bought. I saved it because I thought it was so incredibly outrageous:

"This bug causes the program to crash and thousands of account activity records to be written to the consignors account and the account balance to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars."

Yikes! This, in my book, is grounds for suicide! I take my work seriously and this is not the kind of issue I deal with very well. After total frustration I bought Resale World. I guess to really appreciate the best, you have to first experience the worst! Resale World is logical, sophisticated, fast and basically brilliant. It meets all my needs beautifully. I can not imagine any room for improvement, but they somehow keep making it better. I consider Resale World the cadillac of consignment software."

Their database has no problem holding my 14000+ customers and average of 50,000+ items in my store. I like the ability to get reports and they've been very receptive to making new ones available when we need them."

"I recently opened my first consignment store and am using the Liberty 4 software. Resaleworld has been great with customer support, since this is my first retail store I have had alot of questions! The Liberty software has made running my store much easier and more efficient. I can easily keep track of my inventory, print price tags, and run reports. I can't imagine having to do this by hand! I would highly reccommend them for software and hardware for consignment stores."

"When I came into this business, I worked for a prior consignment shop for 1 year before I opened my own. The program was very easy to learn, I would not still be in business if it wasn't for Liberty, I recommend it to anyone that is thinking of opening up a shop, or switching systems to get this program. You may have to pay a little more but you get what you pay for!!! The support team was very helpful in helping me install the system and get it customized to my needs. I can print out any report I need and have accurate figures. I would be in a ton of trouble if I had to figure it out in my head lol....When I plan on opening my second store, I will be giving Resale world all of my business. Thank You Resale world for making it very easy to do my job, take care of my merchandise and my customers without the hassle of having to keep up with paperwork!"

"Liberty4 Consignment is an efficient, effective software program. It has provided me with the structured tool I need to maintain a successful consignment business, along with the flexibility to customize areas to my individual preferences. The sales department is pleasant to deal with and extremely knowledgeable, with hands on experience using the products. The technical support division is fast, thorough and willing to speak my language (not so computer literate). My experience attending a 3 day training seminar was all positive. I returned home with a wealth of knowledge gained from the instructors, and money saving tips I learned over lunch from other attendees!"

"When I bought the Closet Exchange, all work was done on paper; hand written tags, weekly checks and daily recording of consigned and sold items. Everything was kept in multiple binders and required a minimum of 2 hours of paper work each night.

The Liberty software/program eliminated all that and gave me the time to grow my business. We now have thousands of consigners, 4 stores and are still growing. We couldn’t have done any of this without the Liberty software/program and the amazing support team at Resaleworld.

The new Liberty4 Consignment program is as easy and intuitive to use as Liberty 2002. Its dozens of new features and capabilities make it the perfect choice for any growing company and for any company looking to do business on the web."

"When we decided to open our shop in 2003, we debated on whether to start out by using a manual tagging system or a software program. Once we decided computerizing was the way to go, it didn't take long to determine that Liberty was the right program for our store. Feature for feature, Liberty offered more features than the other programs out there and the price was right to boot! We are now into our 4th year of business, and with over 3500 consignors, we are very pleased with the performance, stability, features, and flexibility that this software has been providing our shop.

We also signed up on bulk tag program that offers added value for tags and other products and enrolled in their support plan which gives us unlimited access to exceptional technical support. Before you decide on what software you will use in your store, make sure you test drive Liberty - you will see how well the software fits your business."

"We opened a consignment furniture store a little over 1 year ago. While researching consignment software, we downloaded and tested software from many different companies. We made a decision to purchase Liberty 2002, even though it was a little more expensive than the other software available. We felt the features and flexibility Liberty offered its users more than justified the price difference.

The purchase of Liberty has been the main component in making our store a success. It allowed us to customize the software to our personal preferences. Liberty allows us to focus on selling merchandise and minimizing the amount of time we spend on back room paperwork. We have recently expanded to a multiuser license and upgraded to Liberty 4 Consignment. The decision to upgrade to Liberty 4 Consignment, as with the original decision to go with Liberty, has already begun to pay off. The staff and support from Resaleworld is truly 1st class.

We’ve gone from having virtually zero data to understanding how well certain categories are selling. Liberty has allowed us to start to get the information that will make a difference in our business!”

"My wife and I opened our store over 3 years ago using Liberty 2002 and have recently upgraded to the new Liberty 4 Consignment. We use the thermal tags and barcode scanner.

Besides making inventory and Point of Sale a breeze for our staff, our customers are impressed with the professional looking, easy to read tags. Our consignors appreciate the up to the minute accurate information Liberty 4 Consignment provides us for their account. I don’t see how anyone in this day and age could use handwritten tags."

"We've been using Liberty for just about 5 years and I can't say enough about this company and product. We originally started on Liberty for Windows and upgraded to the newest program. Resaleworld made some changes for us and I can not believe how productive our staff is with the new product. It's absolutely incredible.

Resaleworld has made our business easier to run and has made life for both me and my sister a lot simpler. Thanks Ed for all your hard work."

"I started using it in my store last Tuesday. I have been training my
employees and it is very, very easy to use. Two of my employees do not how to use a computer, but they too love it.

I have set up several accounts for my store.

1) a retail account for items that I have that a) I do not want to tag because they are inexpensive and too many or b) I have prices like .99, 1.99, 2.99, 3.99 that I use a lot. I have set these prices up in the system and printed out a tag for them to scan when they sell an item. This is great!

2) A STORE accounts....for purchasing items out-right, that will also have a 10% buyer fee. I have a 10% buyer fee on consignment so I wanted my employees to price them the same, whether they are purchased out-right or consignment.

c) Another STORE account for items that are still tagged with my old tags and I want to just add them at the point of sale since I can not scan them...and I do not plan to tag them since there are so many.

d) Consignment with a customer/client, of course, will be added as we sign up customers for consignment.

We have only been using this software for approx. 2 weeks and it is extremely easy to use and figure out. I am amazed at how accommodating it is with both consignment and purchase out-right.

We just signed up my first consignor and I was not sure how to set up my yearly fee and contact ResaleWorld for assistance. So far, your support has been outstanding!!!

I have also set up categories that fit my merchandise and set up different payment plans (4 total) since the all the above accounts work just slightly differently. The computer does it all once all this is set up. I will tell you it takes time to tailor the software to your needs but this is just done at the beginning and then it does it all for you. I can not believe how much it benefits both consignment and purchase-out-right.

I truly love this software and feel, so far, it is really, really worth the investment."

"I would recommend Liberty 4 Consignment to anyone who owns a consignment shop or is considering using software or upgrading their software package.

Liberty 4 is easy to use and has many beneficial features. Just to name a few: sorting information by columns, price guides by category, and the ability to inactivate a consignor. The reports are helpful in analyzing the productivity and profitability of your business. Liberty 4 is a terrific product!"

"I am a true Resale Right Brainer. I am a brick and mortar girl who loves the customer service world surrounded by those fashionista’s who buy and sell their clothes with me.

Would I recommend Liberty, a program I have used since the original version in 1996? Absolutely! It made the left brain part of my business quick, easy and understandable. Right brain….left brain. This is the package for you!"
